The short was also screened at Harding College, under the title "To Be an Ant", as part of their series of cartoon films they've commissioned in the 1950s to animation producer John Sutherland. Unlike the mainstream MGM print, the Harding College print included credits (e.g. George Gordon, Paul Smith, etc.).

Consider The Ant

Albert is an auto mechanic, hard at work while listening to a radio lecture talk about the benefits of central planning. He gets knocked out and dreams of living in an ant hill, where everything is centrally planned, and he has no freedom whatever.

It's a cartoon from John Sutherland's cartoon factory, directed by George Gordon and released by MGM. Sutherland did a lot of educational cartoons, including explanations of inflation, that still stand up today as basic but accurate representations of how things work. This one, however, is a purely propagandistic cartoon against the evils of communism, and overwhelming any sense of fun.
